Resurrecting of Beauty

Art in Place

Artists Yang Mee-Moua Yang and Nonmala Xiong presented an artist/designer showcase featuring projects that utilized unconventional materials found along the light rail from origami to glass jars and transform them into fashion.

In collaboration with the Center for Hmong Arts and Talent, the artists encouraged the public to make new uses of objects and materials found along the corridor. The overall goal of the project was to decrease waste by creating alternative uses for everyday items. The final showcase was held during the Saint Paul's Fall Art Crawl in October and featured 5 artists that were selected through an application process.
